President Trump announces replacement for Secretary of State Rex Tillerson

President Trump announced CIA Director Mike Pompeo will replace Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.

The White House had been discussing a plan to replace Tillerson since November in 2017, according to two administration officials.

Just four months ago, a senior administration official who spoke with Tillerson says the former Exxon Mobil CEO felt secure in his position and was focused on his State Department reorganization and other diplomacy matters.
